Quick Heal Technologies Shows Mixed Financial Trends Amidst Strong Market Performance

Quick Heal Technologies, a small-cap player in the software products industry, has recently undergone a financial trend adjustment, reflecting a notable improvement in its performance metrics for the quarter ending September 2025. The company reported its highest net sales at Rs 83.52 crore, alongside a peak PBDIT of Rs 9.23 crore. The operating profit margin also reached a significant 11.05%, with profit before tax (PBT) recorded at Rs 5.90 crore and a net profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 7.91 crore, translating to an earnings per share (EPS) of Rs 1.46.
However, not all aspects of Quick Heal's financial health are positive. The PAT over the latest six months has shown a decline, standing at Rs 2.40 crore, which reflects a substantial drop of 70.66%. Additionally, non-operating income constituted 42.61% of the profit before tax, indicating a reliance on income sources outside of core operations.

In terms of market performance, Quick Heal's stock has shown resilience, with a 14.51% return over the past week, significantly outperforming the Sensex's 1.13% return. Over the last three years, the stock has delivered a robust return of 75.3%, compared to the Sensex's 43.47%. Despite challenges in the short term, the company's recent financial performance highlights its potential for recovery and growth in the competitive software landscape.
